I am using Qmail for most of my email accounts which is taking up a lot of my Singapore bandwidth which is extremely expensive. Anyway to configure such that POP goes to my Singapore servers, while I setup a pair of servers in USA for my SMTP needs?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to add a new port for SMTP (1024) as a client's ISP block 25, 587 and 2525. I tried following this guide: [URL] ... but it doesn't work with Parallels Plesk Panel 11.5 ...
How to add an additional SMTP port to Qmail in Plesk 11.5?
We are seeing intermittent slow responses from SMTP on a RHEL6 server running Qmail on Plesk 11.5. The response is being measured from a remote Zabbix server.
The response time seems to be slow (>10s) for a period of 2-3 minutes and then returns to normal (<1s). All other services continue to be ok during the period of slowness.
The server_args line in /etc/xinetd.d/smtp_psa already contains "-Rt0" and all the DNS servers in /etc/resolv.conf are resolving properly.
From looking at the maillog file the server was receiving about 35 SMTP connections a minute at the time of the slowdown. We have the server configured to use 2 x RBL's.
I wonder if we are hitting a limit on the maximum amount of SMTP connections. The file /var/qmail/control/concurrencyincoming does not exist so, according to the Qmail manual, there shouldn't be a limit on the number of incoming SMTP connections.
Just got a strange problem on my plesk server. (11.0.9)
Qmail isn't working...
In Home>Tools & Settings>Services management SMTP "Server (QMail)" is stoppped.
When I try to start it, it say "Information: Please allow for some time for the service to start." but never starts...
In command line i try to restart it with "service qmail restart" and it says "OK" also if i run "service qmail status" it says "qmail-send (pid 2880) is running..."
but, it really doesn't work... queue is getting bigger and smtp isnt responding...!
Since 15.05.2015 smtp experiencing problems.
Smtp service (qmail) stops responding on port 25:
# time telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
quit
quit
Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1).
Escape character is '^]'.
quit
quit
Connection closed by foreign host.
real 4m10.629s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.002s
After server restart or sometimes apache stop or ixnetd restart its responding for a some random time, and then again it stops to respond. Plesk panel show it as stopped but qmail itself running in memory, and does other its work, it just stops responding at port 25, or responds with a huge delay.
I've tried change it to postfix, reconfigured with mchk, repaired with repair.sh -r, disabled and uninstalled parallels antivirus, antispam, dnsbl, disabled firewall, disabled smtp lock. Checked apache, dns. Enabled submission port which works when 25 port doesnt, but i need working 25 port.
Nothing solves problem, its just stops responding after some random time. There is no errors on maillog.
I think this problem occured after recent plesk microupdate, because i didn't do anything to server configuration in last months.
This article says it might be dnsbl [URL] .... but it disabled(from plesk panel) on my server, maybe there is way to focefully kill any relation to dnsbl?

I have followed the instructions here to send Plesk notifications through External SMTP (overuse, new domain creation, etc): URL....Here is the error I see in the panel.log: ERR [panel] Unable to send mail.
Is there another log that I'm missing with a more detailed error? Sending through an external SMTP works fine on sites hosted on the same server (Wordpress, Joomla).
I'm using a 1blu.de vServer. On my VPS is Plesk 11.5 with centOS 6 installed. I created my Webspace [URL] .... and removed the Mail Services and activated the MSMTP plugin because I'm using the webserver from the hoster 1blu.de.
I activated the Firewall with the "allow any connection" rule.
In Plesk Tools & Settings > External SMTP Server I filled in the server informations smtp.1blu.de password & username. I checked all three boxes -> SMTP needs auth, allow user scripts ...
I installed Wordpress 3.9.2 with a Theme that uses PHP Mail function. The contact form is not sending any messages out. So I tried other php mail scripts but it doesn't work.

Where can I find the log file that could give me information?
I just want to use php mail for my wordpress contact form and for a project application.
I have Plesk 12 on CentOS 7. I have only MSMTP installed not Postfix or Qmail. No matter what settings I use in the external SMTP settings the mail is never sent and I cannot find any error logs.
I have tried gmail smtp, sendgrid smtp and another smtp server that I own.
This is not a firewall issue as far as I can tell since if I install postfix it just works. Also any Wordpress or Joomla installs that use SMTP settings with gmail or sendgrid work just fine.
Screenshot for information only. I used accurate usernames, passwords, etc.

Quick update. I tried the recommended CentOS 7 with the same result. Can installing Plesk 12 without a mail server and using the msmtp relay option actually works?Click to expand...
We are trying to use a configure settings for an external SMTP server within Plesk (Windows 2008 R2 Plesk 12) but are receiving the following error message:
Error: Unable to encode IDN email address 'username': email address is invalid
We are trying to use a username for SMTP authentication as we do not have the option of using an email address with our current SMTP relay provider.
Is there any way around this so that we can use a username rather than an email address?
i have a fedora core 4 server.. and i want to install a good Qmail email server to host some emails of diferent domains..

Autoresponder
Vpopmail
VQadmin
maildrop
QmailAdmin
Courier-imap/imaps with Courierpassd

Anyone help please greatly appreciate.

I recently upgraded my Qmail systems. Since Inter7 was the one who did it for me previously, I contracted them to do it. Two years ago I was very impressed, my load was a high 20s, after they finished it was in its low 4-5 with 4 CPU processors.
This time I asked for an upgrade for the Qmail in general and also its spam filters as I am getting more and more spams and the load is increasing. They stabilise the server loads, add tons of fantastic new layers of spamming protection, helped monitored and customised their scripts to my systems.
Real professionals and real knowledgeable people when it comes to Qmail. I had nothing but praises two years ago. Two years now, I have still nothing but praises.
ive been asked to use exim coz its easier to use with spamassasin.
but is exim as safe as qmail?
ive heard qmail offers better safety.
I am trying to setup qmail to handle secondary mx for 1 domain name. Panel installed is LXADMIN.
I had modified the /var/qmail/control/smtproutes and /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts, also restarted qmail.
To test this secondary mx, I had modified the domain's dns to point the first mx to something invalid like "heheeeehead.com" so that I hope it will send to the second mx which is my secondary mx.
It did send to the secondary mx but with an error as follows:
<dan@domain.com>:
Sorry, I couldn't find any host named mail.domain.com. (#5.1.2)
Its true the host mail.domain.com is invalid as I had pointed to invalid domain like "heheeeehead.com". But why doesn't the qmail wait a while and retry? Because I got the bounced back error almost immediately after I sent.
The current default value for /var/qmail/control/queuelifetime is 604,800 seconds, or 7 days.
So I'm not sure why it bounced back immediately.
But I'm not sure if this is the correct way to test backup mx.

i am having a server runnung RHEL 4
I'm a web programmer with little knowledge of server maintenace, tasks, configurations, etc.
I run a website hosted a dedicated box with godaddy. It appears my MAX SMTP limit (25,000) is reached at times. I know for a fact my subscribers are not generating this many emails.
1) Is there a way I can see a log file all of the email messages that were sent using my SMTP qmail account?
2) I've entertained the possibility that someone has "hijacked" my qmail account and is using it send out spam messages?
Any help in being able to get to a log for qmail or to run some other kind of diagnosis to figure out what's exactly going on with my server and why my max smtp limit is reached constantly.

I wanted to try HyperVM/LxAdmin setup from sometime now. I finally have one but I am getting trouble with its Qmail MTA. I am posting here hoping to get some help.
Let me tell you the issue.
I have my main vps IP: 10.10.10.22 (I have 3 additional ips).
I have setup 2 domains on their dedicated IPs. (10.10.10.23 & 10.10.10.24). However, whenever I send an email, I get outgoing IP to be 10.10.10.22. I searched on Google and found out that I need to patch qmail with outgoingip.patch to change the outgoing IP.
But how to patch my already installed qmail??? I tried but failed.
I am running Centos 5.3 with HyperVM/Lxadmin
Also, even if I host a domain on main IP, my SPF record is always
Quote:
Received-SPF: neutral (google.com: 10.10.10.22 is neither permitted nor denied by domain domain.com) client-ip=10.10.10.22;
